Use ImageMagick. It should be installed on your system but I don't use Ubuntu so am not sure if you will need to install it. If you have it installed, you would go to the directory in which you have your picture:

cd /home/username/Pictures (as an example)

run the command: display mypicture.jpg (this should open a picture in a new window namedd mypicture.jpg)

Using exec to do it, I don't know. If you want to manipulate images from the command line, read documentattion on ImageMagick.
